As part of TVA Sports' special broadcast, for today's press points regarding the Canadiens, we heard quite a statement about Cayden Primeau.
Analyst Éric Fichaud made the following remark:
"I am convinced that Cayden Primeau won't finish the year in Montreal!"
It's quite a bold statement, and it kicks off training camp with a bang.
Do you agree with him?
"I am convinced that Primeau won't finish the year in Montreal. Convinced, convinced, convinced that eventually, they will make a trade.
I think you should have a much older guy to support Samuel, if you've decided that Samuel is your trusted man."

He added that Montembeault really improved last year, giving up far fewer bad goals, while in Primeau's case, he still has a big consistency issue (according to Fichaud).

It may seem like a bold statement and opinion, but at the same time, Pierre LeBrun just confirmed that for goaltender Yaroslav Askarov, the Canadiens were among the five finalists, writes Pierre LeBrun.
This could explain a lot and seems to confirm that Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton are definitely open to the idea of adding another goaltender.
We strongly recommend listening to his full comments above to fully understand the context.
